1 Then Yahweh answered Job and said,
2 Let him who reproves God answer it.”
3 Then Job answered Yahweh and said,
4 I place my hand over my mouth.
5 Even twice, and I will add nothing more.”
6 Then Yahweh answered Job out of the whirlwind and said,
7 I will ask you, and you make Me know.
8 Will you condemn Me that you may be justified?
9 And can you thunder with a voice like His?
10 And clothe yourself with splendor and majesty.
11 And look on everyone who is proud, and make him low.
12 And tread down the wicked in their place.
13 Bind their faces in the hidden place.
14 That your own right hand can save you.
15 “Behold now, Behemoth, which I made along with you; It eats grass like an ox.
16 And its vigor in the muscles of its belly.
17 The sinews of its thighs are knit together.
18 Its limbs are like bars of iron.
19 Let its Maker bring near its sword.
20 And all the beasts of the field play there.
21 In the hidden place of the reeds and the marsh.
22 The willows of the brook surround it.
23 It is secure, though the Jordan bursts forth to its mouth.
24 With snares can anyone pierce its nose?
